Description and Uses

Gonadotropin-releasing hormone is a decapeptide that is produced in neurosecretory cells within the hypothalamus. GnRH stimulates the synthesis and release of luteinizing hormone (LH) and folliclestimulating hormone (FSH) from the anterior pituitary and also controls reproductive behavior, thus serving as a central regulator of reproduction in vertebrates. It is used not only as a fertility drug but also as an antifertility drug.
